Apple Fitness+

This week apple released Apple Fitness Plus. Was it this week? I think it was. Right? This is something I was very excited about when it first announced. Well, it is finally here and of course I could not wait to check it out.

Since the pandemic, I haven’t not been as active as before, not visiting my local gym — for obvious reasons — and I have been struggling trying on getting back on track. Reason why I was excited for Fitness+. I can do it at home where it’s safe, using my Apple TV or any other of my Apple devices.

The first workout sesh I tried was a HIT workout and it kicked my Puerto Rican buttness 😅. It made me realize how out of shape I am, and was a lot of fun. Only 20 minutes, I know there are longer and even shorter sessions but 20 minutes seem reasonable. Loved the fact that you don’t need to fiddle with the Apple Watch trying to find and match the workout you’re about to do. I like how it shows your progress in real-time right on the screen. The workouts — so far — are not super complicated and they are easy to follow. I like how you can finish your workout sesh and go straight to mindfulness Cooldown or like in my case, I mix and match workouts.

This morning for example I did a 20 min HIT workout, then 10 minutes of core and from that 10 minutes of Mindfulness Cooldown and that was my morning workout.

I am looking forward to explore more workout and getting back into my fitness lifestyle. Of course I will be incorporating other things like kettlebell exercises and run/walks. But for when it’s cold and I don’t feel like going outside, Apple Fitness Plus is zee bees knees.

Yesterday I had to make a pit stop to my local grocery store. Needed some lemon pepper there, onion powder, onion soup mix, and some fizzy water 😅. When I was walking up and down the isles all I could hear was this little girl, probably between two and three years old, wishing merry Christmas to everyone. It was the cutest thing, and everyone would reply merry Christmas back at her.

It was one of those things that made me appreciate the joy of the season. It made me think about, even if you’re having a bad day, a little kid wishing you merry Christmas, it gots to warm your heart a little bit.

Merry Christmas y’all !

When I first started using Twitter back in two thousand and eight — or was it seven 🤔. Anyway, the app that made me get into Twitter more was Tweetbot. Loved the design, the icon, and the “Twitter experience” of it. Obviously I tried and purchased other apps. The ones that come to mind are Twitterrific, Flurry, Twitelator Pro, Tweetings, and Echofon. Most modern ones like Spring and Aviary, and of course both Twitterrific and Tweetbot are around. They all have their own approach and features and sometimes it’s hard to settle on one. I dislike the official Twitter app so I am always using a third party app.

The thing is, no matter how many apps I try or have installed on my iPhone, I always comeback to using Tweetbot. I don’t know if it’s muscle memory or just works the way I want a Twitter client to work, but I still use it and it’s still my favorite Twitter app.

Over the weekend I had decided to purchase a new domain, both because I can and it was only $2.99 😅. The new domain is gabytron.blog. Also the name has changed, from Gabz/ml to Gaby/ml. Unfortunately, the content hasn’t and will not change 😜. It will still be the same unprofessional, personal/digital diary kind of blog.
